During the course of an ordinary week in Hollywood, movie producer Ben must navigate his way through shark-infested waters as he struggles to complete his latest projects. A demanding studio boss demands extensive changes to a movie starring Sean Penn, while another chief won't greenlight a project unless star Bruce Willis shaves his beard. Meanwhile, Ben tries to reconcile with his wife and maintain a relationship with his young daughter.

Top Critics Reviews

fresh:
A film that feels every bit the product of its purportedly ruthless and artistically corrupting milieu.

In some ways, What Just Happened feels like an attempt to, if not make amends for moviemaking myopia, at least show how easily the contagion takes hold.

What Just Happened? has already happened and, to everyone but Levinson, that shouldn't be surprising.

The sharpest Hollywood satire since The Player.
